Information
Quite a strange arcade, its like an arcade warehouse of random machines, fake grass floor around most of the arcade and carpet around back. There is a lot of small kids rides and redemption machines, too many to count.Around the front extension part theres mostly 2p/5p/10p machines with a bunch of random machines, kids rides and EuroMix2.
Further in the back of the extension is Guitar Hero and EuroMix1 and more random machines, please note that with the stairs around there, the bottom of the stairs are liable to flooding (im not joking) so be careful.
Up the stairs you will find a bunch of racing games in the corner, more 2p machines and A3, actual carpet around here!
Rest of the arcade is mostly redemption, shooter, hamster wheel, etc.

10 months agoAMoosenA3 too loud!!
11 months agoAMoosenI really wish I knew what was going on with the A20 cab here.
11 months agoNerdaliciousTVAbsolutely brilliant cab, hopefully it gets updated to A3 or DDR World eventually. I did hear they are working on adding a FSR mod to the Euromix 2 cab. Absolutely amazing game by Konami.
1 year agoblitzenyup, apparently euromix 2 cab is planned to be upgraded to A3 too
1 year agonamwenholy shit they actually *converted* the cab? remember speaking with a lot of the operators there and usually the cabs are ferried between like 10 locations. can't believe they bothered to actually do an upgrade
1 year agomitth-bev-nuruodoIt must be 7 or 8 years since we've been to this arcade, as last time here was July 2020 and arcade was COVID closed. And with all the gentrification around Barry Island, as SO happy the arcade is as eclectic as it was before, with the bonus of a ddr A20 😍 💖 this arcade even more now lol
1 year agoblitzenIts more of a random collection of arcade machines, like an arcade warehouse or smth but its cool i guess lol
